Travis Head tied himself as the greatest Indian villain; Sanja Manjrekar begs Rohita Sharma to get rid of him
Former Sanja Manjrekar Crushkar believes that Wickket Travis Head will be a key moment in the Champions Trophy 2025 Champion semi -finals between India and Australia. Sanja Manjrekar said India had to throw a travis head early in order to avoid repeating the finals of the 2023 World Cup, where he broke the century.
India will face Australia in the first semi -finals of the champion trophy at the International Krixket Stadium in Dubai on Tuesday, March 4th. India secured first place in Group A, while Australia finished second in Group B. Men in blue will begin as favorites with respect to the conditions in Dubai.
Someone gets a travis head – Sanjay Manjrekar
Australia lacks several key players, including their bowling trio. However, Sanja Manjrekar said the Travis Head opener is the biggest threat to India. Manjrekar stated that a quick heading could be the most important moment of play for India.
“Someone gets Travis, whoever it is. He is one guy that India will really want in the locker room very quickly. It will be a moment for me. Travis head,” Majrekar told Espncricinfo.
The head played a key role in Australia’s victory over India in the World Cup final. He reduced the century of victory in front of the stadium full of jam. Head also hit a century against India in the World Cup final. In the last game he broke a quick half century against Afghanistan.
It will be the middle phase – Sanjay Manjrekar
Sanja Manjrekar said India should control the middle phase in its semi -final conflict. He pointed out that Glenn Maxwell could affect Indian spinners on tricky ground. He chose the battle between Maxwell and an Indian spin attack as a key moment in the match.
“I think it will be the middle phase. I think with Maxwell and Kuldeep Yadav or Spinner – Varun Chakravarthy. That would be the biggest thing,” Manjrekar said.
India opted for an offensive attack in their latest game of AA Metch against New Zealand in Dubai. Varun Chakravarthy, who replaced Pacer Harshit Wound, provided impressive performance with 5-42 figures.
Kuldeep Yadav took two shots, while Axar Patel and Ravidar Jadeja took one. With their spinners who led from the front, Team India secured his third consecutive group stage victory. Kuldeep and Chakravarthy are likely to include in the semi -finals with respect to the conditions.
Travis Head stood up in many of them in the past – Steve Smith
On the eve of the key semi-finals, Australia’s captain Steve Smith recalled the centuries of the Head Travis victory in the World Cup final. Smith said Head had the ability to perform in high -role matches.
“I mean, there is pressure every time you play in a big game,” Smith told reporters.
“But, as we know, Travis stood up in many of those in the past. And, you know, he watched in Afghanistan on the great night. I’m sure he’ll watch him go out here and play the same way as he played for a long time, with good intention, good aggression,” he added.
